I like Hornberger's writing a lot (no suprise there). Many of us really don't think Bush is dangerous, thinking that the American system is too resilient to fall to tyranny. What is forgotten is that, while civil liberties have mostly been protected, government has become ubiquitous in our daily lives. We may or may not yet have an Evil Empire underway, but we are building Kafkaesque bureaucracies in our vain attempts to control each other.
